X Configuration

/etc/X11/xorg.conf is the file where X11 configuration is stored. X11 provides tools (X -configure, xorgsetup, xorgconf and xorgcfg) for configuring X on Slackware. X- configure is preferred for inexperienced users, because it automatically generates a configuration file. Other tools require to enter manually.

Below command will generate xorg.conf.new file located in home directory of root (I assume that you did not started X and you are logged in as root).
